Alberto Contador Reclaims Lead in Giro d’Italia

Alberto Contador outclassed his rivals on a tough individual time trial Saturday to reclaim the overall lead of the Giro d’Italia after the 14th stage, which was won by Vasil Kiryienka of Belarus.

Contador started the day 19 seconds behind Fabio Aru after a crash at the end of the previous stage lost him the overall leader’s jersey. But after a superb ride, he finished third and moved to 2 minutes 28 seconds ahead of Aru.

Andrey Amador went into third over all, 3:36 behind Contador, after an unusually long time trial of 36.9 miles from Treviso to Valdobbiadene.

■ Kristin Armstrong, a two-time Olympic time-trial gold medalist, won her fourth national title to lock up a spot at the world championships. Armstrong blazed over the course in Chattanooga, Tenn., in 42 minutes 8.04 seconds to beat out her teammate Carmen Small by more than 13 seconds.
